Finally, it provides some initial thoughts on the national and transnational dynamics of knowledge production underlying this state of affairs.

A La Modernidad Por La Agricultura: Etica Rural Y Utopía Campesina En Domingos Vandelli (1789) Y Gaspar Melchor De Jovellanos (1794), Alvaro Kaempfer

Latin American, Caribbean, and Latino Studies Faculty Publications

A fines del siglo 18, Vandelli y Jovellanos retornan a las reformas pombalinas y borbónicas de Portugal y España, respectivamente, para esbozar un proyecto que complete la modernización. Buscaban encarar la Modernidad de la Europa de Norte examinando la trayectoria cultural ibérica para diseñar su propia Modernidad. Esta Modernidad debía estar organizada en torno a la relación entre ética y economía sobre un programa cuya fortaleza surgía del mundo rural.

Economías De Redención: "La Agricultura De La Zona Tórrida" (1826) De Andrés Bello, Alvaro Kaempfer

Latin American, Caribbean, and Latino Studies Faculty Publications

Si “Alocución a la Poesía” (1823) de Andrés Bello era un llamado a dejar Europa, cruzar el Atlántico y fundar la historicidad del Nuevo Mundo, “La agricultura de la Zona Tórrida” (1826) sería su factura programática.
